냉찜질 팩의 화학 원리

질산암모늄의 흡열 용해 연구하기

Thermochemistry Beginner (Middle School) 20 분 ~$6.00

목표

질산암모늄이 물에 용해될 때의 온도 변화를 측정하여 즉석 냉찜질 팩에 사용되는 흡열 용해 과정을 실증한다.

배경

Ammonium nitrate dissolves endothermically in water, absorbing heat from the surroundings and causing a significant temperature drop. This principle is used in commercial instant cold packs for first aid. The dissolution has ΔH = +25.7 kJ/mol.

안전 경고

  • Ammonium nitrate is an oxidizer — keep away from organic materials and heat
  • Do not mix with anything other than water for this experiment
  • Wear goggles

필수 개인 보호 장비

goggles

재료

  • Ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃) (30 g)
    Or from a commercial cold pack
  • Distilled water (100 mL)
    Room temperature

장비

Polystyrene cup calorimeter Thermometer Stirring rod Analytical balance

실험 절차

1

Add 100 mL of distilled water to the polystyrene cup calorimeter. Record the initial temperature.

3 분
2

Weigh 30 g of ammonium nitrate.

2 분 Ammonium nitrate is an oxidizer
3

Add the ammonium nitrate to the water. Stir gently to dissolve.

3 분
4

Record the temperature every 30 seconds as it drops. Note the minimum temperature.

5 분
5

Feel the outside of the cup — it should feel cold.

1 분
6

Calculate ΔH of dissolution per mole: q = mcΔT, n = mass/M(NH₄NO₃), ΔH = q/n.

5 분

예상 결과

Temperature should drop 15-20°C. 30 g NH₄NO₃ = 0.375 mol. q = 100 × 4.18 × ΔT. Calculated ΔH should be approximately +25 kJ/mol (±15%).

정리

The ammonium nitrate solution is safe to dispose down the drain (dilute). Rinse the calorimeter.
